Abstract
The present technology relates to an autonomous moving object and an information processing method that make it possible to improve the ability in expression of the autonomous moving object. The autonomous moving object is an autonomous moving object that operates autonomously, and includes a light emission section that changes a color and brightness of a surface of the autonomous moving object, and a motion controlling section that controls a light emission pattern that is a pattern of the color and brightness of the light emission section, on the basis of a state of the autonomous moving object. The present technology can be applied, for example, to an autonomously movable robot that imitates a creature.
